The Sawbuck Malbec has enticing aromas of blackberry and chocolate raspberry layered over black pepper spice and leather. Concentrated flavors of black cherry, mocha and smoky vanilla are supported by soft dusty tannins and hints of rustic blueberry rhubarb cobbler. Well balanced and elegant, this wine is a unique alternative to cabernet sauvignon or merlot. It is the perfect wine for melt-in- your-mouth barbequed baby back ribs.

Notes on the Sawbuck Malbec 750ML 2011

Tasting Notes
Juicy dark berry notes are joined by aromas of spiced oak, vanilla and baked cherries. Undertones of earth meet medium-firm tannins and bright acids on the persistent finish.

Technical Notes
(76% Malbec/12% Tempranillo/6% Syrah/6% Cabernet Sauvignon). Estate-grown Malbec grapes were harvested in two passes. 10% of the free run juice from fruit harvested during the first pass was bled off and fermented with ES 488 and native yeast. Cabernet Sauvignon from Chalk Hill and Tempranillo and Syrah from Dunnigan Hills add richness and depth. After blending, the wine aged in American and French oak barrels for 18 months.

Additional Notes
CLASSIC SAWBUCKWhen owners John and Lane Giguiere started their first winery in 1983 they were young and enthusiastic with dreams much bigger than their bank account. The first years were financed by credit cards and hope until they felt like they were down to their last sawbuck before R.H. Phillips and Toasted Head became wine brands.About the AppellationSawbuck wines are made from grapes grown in the northern edge of the California wine country; Mendocino and Yolo Counties. Both are unique growing regions that are left of center of the mainstream. Often overlooked, they offer wines of incredible quality at a value price.
